What are Office Fonts?

Tags:

Office Fonts from H&Co are adaptations of some of our most popular typefaces, specifically designed for use in business applications such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Office Fonts allow an organization’s branding to extend beyond the projects that designers create, to include the reports, proposals, statements, and presentations prepared by non-designers — documents that often make up the bulk of how an organization communicates.

Because most business software lacks the sophisticated typographic controls available in graphic design programs, H&Co’s Office Fonts are built to take advantage of the natural abilities of even the most elementary word processors, spreadsheets, and presentation packages. All Office Fonts from H&Co feature:

Manageable Families

In place of the more detailed range of styles that can be difficult for both programs and users to navigate, H&Co’s Office Fonts are provided in the traditional four-style arrangement of Regular, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Bold and Italic styles are mapped to the standard keyboard shortcuts B and I.

Superior Rendering

Office Fonts use ScreenSmart™ technology to deliver crisp and clear rendering on screen at sizes as small as nine pixels, a benefit that’s most dramatic on Windows. All Office Fonts have fixed-width “tabular figures,” to ensure that columns of numbers align correctly in spreadsheets, tables, and charts.

Compatibility

Office Fonts from H&Co are produced in TrueType format, to support even the simplest (and oldest) business applications available for both Mac and Windows.
